The Universe Doesn't Give a Flying Fuck About You (Epic series Book 1)
If you walk around every day on eggshells, nervous about making a mistake or looking stupid, then you should read this.
If you have a "next big thing" in mind you want to do because you know it will be awesome (starting the business, making the big move, launching the nonprofit, writing the book) but are afraid of doing what it would take to make that thing happen, then you should read this.
The universe is very big. You are very small. In fact, you're so small and so insignificant in the big picture that you don't even register to the eye of the cosmos. The universe was here before you were born and will be here long after you're gone, and your life is but a blip on its vast, vast radar. If your life is to matter, it's not going to matter to the universe. It's up to you make your life matter in the only way you can: by doing things that make a difference to you, to those around you, and to those whose lives you touch. Time is short. You have exactly NOW to do whatever it is you're here to do, or to let the inexorable passage of hours and days and years kill your potential like fruit left to die on a vine.
The universe doesn't hate you, but it doesn't love you, either. You're just an atom in its infinite workings. The universe doesn't care if you live, die, suffer, or thrive. Whatever your life here will mean is up to you.
Stop worrying so much about what others think and start being who you're supposed to be. It's time to do some epic shit.

You are dying, and your world is a lie (Epic series Book 2)
What is pain? What is discomfort? Is it something terrible, something to be avoided... or is it the very thing that lets us know that we are alive?
The modern world has sold us on a lie. The lie says that to live is to be comfortable. To live is to be free of struggle. The lie says that the ultimate existence would be to never want for anything, to never be pushed so far that it hurts. So why do some of us seek out "edge" experiences? Why do we flirt with deprivation, with intentional chaos? Why do some of us push toward and through our own physical, emotional, and emotional limits, just to see how it feels?
Every day, safe in our modern cocoons, we can comfortably ignore the fact we are dying. But should we blind ourselves to the truth? Beyond self-help cliches lies a painful and sobering reality: YOUR TIME IN THIS LIFE IS LIMITED... AND IT IS RUNNING OUT.
This essay looks at what it is to strive, to seek out what hurts us so that we may find out what it is to truly be human.

Always Know What To Say - Easy Ways To Approach And Talk To Anyone
Who is this book for?
"Always Know What To Say" is for anyone who wants a straight to the point explanation of conversation skills fundamentals. I point out key distinctions you can apply right away to go from being tongue tied and unsure of what to say to having fun meeting people and getting to know them better. If you read AND apply what I cover in the book you`ll make steady progress and become much more at ease talking to people.
This book is not for you if you already have very good conversation skills and are comfortable meeting new people and letting your personality shine. You need to go elsewhere if you are looking for "secrets" and advanced strategies to achieve conversation skills mastery. You`ll regard this book as common sense.
And finally, this book is not for you if you read self help books and disregard the training because you`ve read something similar before and never apply what you learn. You`ll tell yourself you knew it all already.
You`ll gain a lot from "Always Know What To Say" if you treat it as a set of principles and strategies you get to play with in the real world. This is not light entertainment, its practical training that`s designed for you to use in your day to day life. If you do you`ll enjoy the happiness and warmth that comes from connecting with the important people in your life whether that be in your family and community or at work.
Here`s what people are saying about this book at Amazon.com
"If you are a shy person who finds it difficult to communicate with new people then this book will be helpful. Peter Murphy presents conversation starters, explains body language and teaches you what to ask people when you first meet. This book contains simple strategies for entertaining conversations. With this book anyone should be able to survive a party or talk to strangers on a plane. I personally find that listening to people talk about their life is a good way to make people like you. Being a shy person by nature I found some of this book to be very useful."
Rebecca Johnson
"I found a lot of great ideas in this book. I will have to refer back to it frequently to remember some of the ideas. Its a short book but not only is it packed with great ideas but the author has a great free website packed with ideas and there is a free audio on his website. I think it would be worth writing down some of the ideas and reviewing them before a social situation."
Cynthia from Florida
"As a manager of a retail store that pushes strong customer service, I have a large young staff. I've shared excerpts from this book with them and it blows their mind. As a young person they are having a hard time talking to people about something that they are worried doesn't interest the customer so they are all worried about failure and rejection. This book, I believe, has helped save my store. It is very basic, but almost like, why didn't I think to tell my staff that!"

How to #Price Like A Girl: Know your value, set your fees and start making real money
Do you often have the sense that you're chronically undercharging for the work you do? Are you working too hard without the income to show for it?
Then it's time for you to learn how to #PriceLikeAGirl: with power and confidence.
You're a woman in business doing great work: a coach, a solopreneur, a creative professional. There is no reason in the world that you can't make a great living doing what you love to do.
In "How to #Price Like A Girl," you'll discover why the "money mindset" piece that everyone talks about is a myth (it's so much simpler than that); how to really know your value; how to set your fees with ease; and much more.
You can have all the wonderful marketing in the world. But if your pricing isn't right, none of it will matter.
With humor and fun, author Mary Schiller (that's me!) will have you raising your rates and providing even better results to your clients and customers faster than you can say "Girl Power."
What #PriceLikeAGirl pricing has done for me:
- I doubled my coaching fees in just 1 year
- I've increased the number of clients working with me (no one has been scared away by my fees!)
- I've erased any "money blocks" that have stood in my way of making a great living doing what I do
And a whole lot more. I've stepped into a leadership role within my niche within a short period of time -- and I've done so without fear.
With this book, you'll also get access to my free guide, The Top 5 Ways to Double Your Fees Fast, plus bonus audios and more.

Disobey (Epic series Book 3)
We've been handed a world that was created by others, shaped by their thoughts and actions, and told that this is the way things must be.
We've been given a set of rules that are at root only opinions of the majority, and have been told that these are objectively, morally correct, immutable truths.
We've been sat down to play a game that is rigged -- a game that, even if we win, gives us something other than what we believed we would receive in victory.
And if we don't begin to consciously question the rules of our world and to look closely at the game we're unwittingly playing, then we will never get what we want.
It's time to look. Assess. Investigate. Choose. And, where appropriate, to disobey.
This essay follows the author's path from a life of "good kid" conformity in youth to his present-day decisions to start his own business, "unschool" his children, and to give up on what is not working. It's his manifesto of freedom and of conscious choice, and it can be yours, too.
If life is not what you wanted or expected it to be, this essay will help you to become more. To question norms. To disobey.

How to Live Forever (Epic series Book 4)
We all want to live forever, but we shouldn't. We're not supposed to. Ironically, if we could literally live every single day that time and space have left, our lives would be almost meaningless. It's the end of lives that cause them to matter.
But your life, short as it is -- and perhaps because it's short -- can have more meaning and more effect on other people than you can possibly imagine... if you chose to let it.
The end of your life is not the end. Not unless you let it be, through your actions and inactions during the time you're alive.
The end of your life -- thanks to the turbulence you leave behind you in the stream of time -- is the beginning.

How to Work for Yourself: 100 Ways to Make the Time, Energy and Priorities to Start a Business, Book or Blog

His 30 books, all of which were written in the past few years, have sold more than 20,000 copies. He achieved this success through the life-enriching tips he learned by reading dozens of books, attending multiple conferences and through his own trial and error.
He's put in hundreds of hours of refining his creativity techniques so that you don't have to. By using Cohen's tips and tricks, you'll start planning your business, book, blog or course in the next few days with optimized time, renewed energy and an improved balance in your life.

Don't Give Your Work Away For Free
Today's traditional employment model is structured so that one is paid for the work he or she does over a given period. In this linear construct, you go to work for a week and at week's end you are compensated for that work. The next week you do more work and are compensated for that work, and so on. This is a common agreement between employers and employees in many countries, including the United States.
The purpose of this book is to challenge that construct. It is the author's intent to suggest a more profitable arrangement for the creator of the product -- the worker. The notion is that one could work on a project for a certain amount of time but the product of that project could pay dividends for a longer term. One might work for a week and be paid for the product of that work every week for many years. Imagine how this construct would compound income week after week, project after project. At some point, with numerous streams of income from a growing number of completed projects, one would be able to discontinue taking on new projects if he or she desired, living off the residuals of the projects he or she created to that point. Indeed, one could take a vacation, still earning income from work he or she completed long ago.
With the help of Dr. Frederick Von Greensburg, Thaddeus Cooper breaks down the concept of passive income and outlines a strategy for creating streams of this revenue to supplement or replace traditional income.

Why should you listen to me?
Because I was exactly where you are now.

Quit Your Job in 6 Months: Why You Should Quit Your Job and How You Can: Volume 1
Ordinary Job, Ordinary Life "Quit your job? But I thought having a job was a good thing!" Jobs feel safe. We show up, do what we're supposed to do, and a check for the same amount comes in every couple of weeks. We can feel safe, secure, and comfortable with that. We can budget for housing, transportation, and food. We might even get a few weeks of vacation each year and have enough left over to go somewhere nice. So what's the problem? Average Isn't Satisfying, and Repetition is Drudgery The problem is that average just isn't satisfying. We can be thankful that we're not homeless or completely impoverished all we want, but that still doesn't scratch the itch we all have to live an extraordinary life-to spend more time doing what we love, less time doing what we don't love, and have more financial wealth to support our adventures. On top of that, most jobs involve doing the same things over and over again. You don't learn. One day blends into the next. You don't grow. Your life lacks richness, diversity, and excitement. All put together this doesn't make for a very inspiring way to live the one life you get. Quit, and Do Your Own Shit In "Quit Your Job in 6 Months: Why You Should Quit Your Job and How You Can," author and internet entrepreneur Buck Flogging reveals all of his internet business secrets to help you build a business from zero to $100 per day or more in 6 months or less-all in your spare time using time-efficient tactics that work, with minimal startup costs. If you want a shot at achieving real wealth and living the dream life of freedom to work anywhere in the world with an internet connection, the four book "Quit Your Job in 6 Months" series will teach you everything you need to know. Available in paperback, audiobook, and as an eBook for instant download on major book retailers everywhere.
